GENSHIN CONTENT YIPPIIEEEEE
How's the game nowadays? I got burnt out of it after 4.0.
Lots of quality of life tweaks, but the firehose of content drowned me.
Works in Lutris now too, no real hassle.
I'm still waiting for fully linuxable grasscutter without hassle as well as main story completion.
edit: on their site cultivation is listed as having linux build so I guess gc no hassle is already available.
double edit: I tried setting up cultivation on steam deck/bazzite and it would insta crash seemingnly when trying to download the grasscutter files. There is a fork that seems to be more up to date but it doesnt have linux releases past some old verasion.
As far as I know people play on Linux with cultivation but for me the problem is that the current version of cultivation is stuck on game version 4.0.0. There is a patch for 4.6 but it is not merged yet and version 5.0 is around the corner.
Edit (Response to edit 2): You can try to ask in their discord, from what I seen there was a report that version 4.6 doesn't work but 4.0 works just fine according to OP. You can also try to check logs maybe something useful will be there.
What's 'cultivation'? And does this mean Genshin Linux only has content till 4.0?
cultivation is a launcher for genshin that allows you to use grasscutter unofficial or self host servers easily, iirc also with a hidden button to enable 3dmigoto/visual mods. if you host your own server there are plugins for a bunch of things and you can modify loot/pull tables or just give yourself whatever you want.
It supposedly works on linux but I couldn't get it to work, though it may jjst require digging really deep for the fixes to my problems and I'm lazy.
for just playing the game on linux with official servers/real account (at own risk) theres 'an anime game launcher' and I haven't heard any reason why the version wouldnt be up to date. the version issue with grasscutter I believe is because someone has to manually recreate all quests, loot and enemy positions, events, etc because there is seemingly no way to dump them from official.
I see, thanks. Is using the official server using this 'an anime game launcher' against TOS?
Playing the game on an unsupported system is against TOS but the only ban I ever heard of was in the early days when they tried to create a patch and obviously it was trial and error. Right now no patch is needed, you can download the official launcher, put it in Heroic or Lutris and play like on windows. (You can also download it from Epic on Heroic). It works great but there is also the anime game launcher that allows you to easily configure a few things like 120FPS patch, wine setting etc.
I see, thanks!
It is but I have gotten away with it so far. I played up until the last update before hydro region was added with 4 accounts, one with some purchases. No idea if they have gotten stricter but up to where I stopped playing I haven't heard of any bans for just that.
Firehose of content? Does that mean a lot of or lack of content?
A lot.
